Description

    BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention
  • The present invention relates generally to a transmission cable structure with capacitor device, and more particularly to a transmission cable structure, which can absorb surges, filter the wave and enhance data transmission speed.
    • 2. Description of the Related Art
  • The existent electrical apparatuses are all charged or supply power or transmit data via transmission cables, such as tablets, intelligent mobile phones, mobile power banks, digital cameras, keyboards, mice or mobile hard disks. The conventional transmission cable structure includes two connectors respectively connected with at least two ends of multiple positive and negative electrode conductive wires or grounding wire, such as D-type, G57, DIN, HDMI or USB connectors. According to the requirement of circuit design, the respective conductive wires are respectively soldered on multiple conductive terminals of the connectors. In this case, the connectors at two ends of the transmission cable can be respectively connected to the connectors of two electrical apparatuses, whereby the two electrical apparatuses are electrically connected via the two connectors. In addition, the transmission cable can be quickly installed/uninstalled to facilitate the use.
  • When the conventional electrical apparatuses transmit electrical power or data, the surges will be inevitably generated. This is mainly because the thunder and lightning will generate thunder surges or the opening/closing of the circuit will cause opening/closing surges. The opening/closing surges are the surges generated in the instant of closing the circuit. In general, the surges are caused by the electronic components such as the relay, switch, solenoid winding, fuse, transistor or the thyristor in IC. The surges generated when supplying power is apt to cause mis-operation of the circuit of the electrical apparatus or even cause damage of the electrical apparatus due to override of the circuit. Moreover, after a long period of interference by the surges, the circuit of the electrical apparatus is easy to cause shortening of the lifetime of the electronic components.
  • In order to avoid the interference of the surges to the electrical apparatus, many electrical apparatuses are additionally equipped with circuit protection module. For example, a circuit protection module can be inbuilt in the charging circuit of an intelligent mobile phone. The power can be transmitted to the battery of the intelligent mobile phone via the transmission cable and circuit protection module to charge the battery. In charging, the circuit protection module can eliminate the surges generated by the power supply to protect the charging circuit as well as the battery. However, not all the electrical apparatuses have the design of the circuit protection module. Many electrical apparatuses and most of the internal circuits connected to the multiple connectors of the electrical apparatuses lack circuit protection module. With respect to the above problem, the conventional transmission cable still has no structural design for eliminating the surges and protecting the electrical apparatus.
  • Even if some of the electrical apparatuses have circuit protection module to protect the circuits and electronic components of the electrical apparatuses from being damaged by the thunder surges, the circuit protection module itself often is easy to damage after encountering one time of thunder surge. In this case, the circuit protection module will lose its surge elimination ability. Furthermore, the service cost for the circuit protection module of the circuit of the electrical apparatus is generally higher.
  • In addition, various communication or AV electrical apparatuses capable of dealing with 3G, 4G or over 4G data are currently very popularly used and the amount of the accessed data has become larger and larger. However, the data access and transmission speed of the existent transmission cable is still quite low so that the data access time can be hardly saved.
  • It is therefore tried by the applicant to provide a transmission cable structure with capacitor device to solve the above problems of the conventional transmission cable.
    • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
  • It is therefore a primary object of the present invention to provide a transmission cable structure with capacitor device, which can absorb surges and filter the wave.
  • To achieve the above and other objects, the transmission cable structure with capacitor device of the present invention includes:
  • a first connector and a second connector, each of the first and second connectors having an electrical mating section, at least one anode terminal and at least one cathode terminal, the anode terminal and the cathode terminal serving to transmit electrical power respectively via the electrical mating sections;
    at least one positive electrode conductive wire, two ends of the positive electrode conductive wire being respectively connected to the anode terminal of the first connector and the anode terminal of the second connector;
    at least one negative electrode conductive wire, two ends of the negative electrode conductive wire being respectively connected to the cathode terminal of the first connector and the cathode terminal of the second connector; and
    a capacitor device disposed between the first and second connectors, the capacitor device having a first electrode and a second electrode, the first electrode of the capacitor device being connected to the positive electrode conductive wire, while the second electrode of the capacitor device being connected to the negative electrode conductive wire. The first electrode of the capacitor device is a positive electrode, while the second electrode of the capacitor device is a negative electrode.
  • According to the above structure, when the first and second connectors are respectively electrically connected with a first electrical apparatus and a second electrical apparatus, the capacitor device and the second electrical apparatus forma parallel circuit. When the first electrical apparatus supplies power for the second electrical apparatus, the capacitor device is charged by the first electrical apparatus to charge the second electrical apparatus. By means of the charging/discharging effect of the capacitor device, the instantaneous surges possibly generated when charged by the first electrical apparatus are absorbed to prevent the second electrical apparatus from being affected by the instantaneous surges. Also, a filtering function is provided to supply more stable power for the second electrical apparatus.
  • The present invention further provides a transmission cable structure with capacitor device, which can absorb surges, filter the wave and enhance data transmission speed. The capacitor device can be a supercapacitor (or so-called electrical double-layer capacitor). The supercapacitor has electrodes made of ruthenium or tantalum material. The supercapacitor has the advantages of low equivalent series resistance, short charging/discharging time, extremely high capacitance, high power density, etc. Accordingly, when the first electrical apparatus supplies power for the second electrical apparatus or transmits data to the second electrical apparatus, the supercapacitor not only can further enhance the circuit protection effect such as surge absorption effect and filtering effect, but also can more effectively increase the data transmission speed.
  • Accordingly, by means of the circuit design of the capacitor device connected to the transmission cable in parallel, the present invention is able to provide surge absorption and filtering effects for an existent electrical apparatus without circuit protection module. Also, the present invention increases the data transmission speed and is able to provide a low-cost circuit protection structure for an electrical apparatus already having circuit protection module.
  • In the above transmission cable structure with capacitor device, at least one first resistor is serially connected between one of the first and second electrodes of the capacitor device and the positive electrode conductive wire.
  • In the above transmission cable structure with capacitor device, the capacitor device is connected to a circuit protection module and the circuit protection module is serially connected to at least one second resistor.
  • In the above transmission cable structure with capacitor device, a receiving box is securely disposed on the positive and negative electrode conductive wires and the capacitor device is disposed in the receiving box.
  • The present invention can be best understood through the following description and accompanying drawings, wherein:

Accordingly, the supercapacitor 5 is charged by the power supply of the first electrical apparatus 7 to charge the battery 81 of the second electrical apparatus 8. By means of the fast charging/discharging property of the supercapacitor 5, the instantaneous surges possibly generated when charged by the first electrical apparatus 7 can be absorbed to prevent the circuit and the battery 81 of the second electrical apparatus 8 or the circuit protection module 9 from being affected by the instantaneous surges. Also, a filtering function is provided to supply more stable power for the second electrical apparatus 8. Even if the transmission cable and the supercapacitor 5 of the present invention are damaged by the surges, the second electrical apparatus 8 can be still secured from the affection of the surges.

In this case, the first electrical apparatus 7 can transmit data to the second electrical apparatus 8 via the positive and negative electrode conductive wires 3, 4 and the supercapacitor 5. Accordingly, by means of the properties of fast charging/discharging speed, high energy conversion efficiency, extremely high capacitance, etc. of the supercapacitor 5, the data transmission speed can be effectively enhanced.
